So
you came up with an idea for an online business and started
thinking of a great domain name for it, only to realize that all the
good domain names are already taken. Then you tried automatic domain
name generation tools, but most of the name they generated didn’t
make any sense. What to do now? Well, just crowdsource your domain
name idea generation to PickyDomains.

business slogan or tag line generation service. It has a proven track
record of generating great domain names, and business slogans such
as SEOBook for Aaron Wall, eMomsAtHome Wendy Piersall, and
SurefireMarketing for Yanik Silver.

How Does it Work?

To
get started, you have to deposit amount depending upon the service
you need. For domain name suggestions, the fee is $50. For business
slogan suggestions, its $75. You can use credit card, paypal or
wire transfer to deposit the money. Note that this money is only a deposit, which means if you don’t like any of the domain names suggested by them, you get a full refund.
After
payment, you send them more details about the site you are
starting, and characteristics of the domain name you need, like
preferred extensions, length, and hyphenated or not. After that just
wait and watch as people start suggesting the names.
You must check the suggested names periodically and mark them Liked or Disliked to indicate your taste. Once you find the domain you like, just mark it Picked to complete your order.

domain names for them. If you suggest a domain that is picked by a client, then you get 40-60% of the fee, depending on you rank, which improves with the number of suggestions you post.
